Summary
Haley had her life all figured out. She'd study photography, find success in the big city, and never return to the drab little valley she'd known all her life. She'd always been better than her peers, so it had never crossed her mind that she could possibly end up in the same situation as the rest of them: Stuck in Stardew Valley with crushed dreams, boring routines, and no hope for the future.
After everything she had planned for her life came crashing down on her, there's only one thing that can drag her, and her almost-pro-gridball-star friend, out of their misery and back onto the path of happiness: The new farmer in town.
With the weight of falling in love, community pressure, and her desire for success heavy on her shoulders, Haley must overcome her own internal challenges to figure out what she really wants in life, and if her wildest dreams are even worth hanging onto.
Or: The one where Haley learns a few lessons, bi dating is all the rage, and mine safety should really be taught in school.

Summary
Swans mate for life - at least that is what you have been told during your studies. Snezhnaya was a land of ruthless cold, so you have never seen an actual swan.
Not until one fateful day, during a banquet. A fated encounter one might even say, now that you were in a much warmer and humid climate, working as the right hand to the Knave - your lover. Despite escaping your cruel fate that waited for you back in Snezhnaya, you had a feeling that your greedy family would not let you go so easily.Started in 4.2 finished in 5.8

Summary
Haley knows what it means to put any hope in her parents' promises - she knows how this story always ends - but she doesn't know how to help it. They're her parents. And somewhere deep inside, she holds onto the possibility of meaning something to them just for being their daughter.

The one we realize 'parents' might be a sore subject for both of them, but luckily, they have each other to lean onto
